Black Diamond - Raven Ice Axe

The Black Diamond Raven Ice Axe is the modern iteration of Chouinard's original design, and has been used on classic climbs all over the world for decades. This classic piolet (French for ice axe) optimizes comfort and ease of use when glacier traveling and mountaineering. Like all of Black Diamond's piolets, the anodized shaft is built from lightweight, aircraft aluminum alloy for high strength. The investment-cast, one-piece stainless steel head is comfortable to wrap your fingers around, and the slim, neutral pick and aggressive teeth are engineered for secure self-arrest.
